I study people, culture & behaviors—then transform research into insights for smarter decision-making.

I’m an anthropologist, design strategist, UX researcher, thought leader, and writer. I help find answers to complicated human questions that most teams cannot find time or bandwidth to tackle.

My research design and methods apply an interpretive cultural + human science approach, helping discover solutions efficiently and effectively.

Collaboration is critical. My processes are flexible and adaptive. I tailor work for different audiences, budgets, timelines, and other expectations.

I often focus on the culture, practices, places and products of everyday life, from mobility to grocery stores, from workplaces to health care devices.

Things I Do

There’s a variety of ways that I can help.

  • Leading research projects, independently or in collaboration with a team

  • Work with and alongside research partners or internal research groups

  • Training others in research

  • Quick projects with specific goals, like delivering customer sentiment based on interviews

  • Deeper engagement projects that inform product or experience design cycles
